This is what Derek actually says re: the FCA for anyone who doesn't want to slog--

quote:

And now, amid all this, we’re hearing rumors that these folks were apparently over there recently when Erin Roberts was here in the US, and Chris Roberts was over in the UK. It could be anything, or nothing – or false. It’s a developing story that I’m following; and can’t say anything more than that at this point. But needless to say, those now following the money should be looking closely at where it’s coming from, where it’s going, and whether they have enough to complete the project or not.

I don't know if Derek is hedging so hard because he has to or what. It's not slam-dunk evidence by any means as presented in the blog, but yeah, I can see it being the (hilarious and satisfying) end to the Star Citizen saga if it were true.

E: typical Derek fare, but he does name a specific regulatory agency
E2: why does the link go to the FSA?

It's amazing how much H.R. Geiger's Alien is basically an amalgam of terrifying poo poo found in nature and cranked up to 11.

Why is this ok with you guys? This is a loving hilarious bombshell in any other thread. Why do you even care if they're a brit. Is it because we "brits" say crips and lorry? Are we like brothers in this uncaring world? If people like you decide who the good posters are then gently caress everything you loony oval office.

British people appear to be smarter to us Yanks, it is one of their clever ruses, like inserting "u" into certain wourds. Therefore it is wise to keep an eye on them.

Note the donut box and the butter knife with crap all up the handle.

If you ever buy or make real peanut butter, it is sometimes necessary to jam the knife all the way down because the solids and oils separate out and gently caress if I can ever get everything mixed together nicely. But this is Jif, so :lol: Ben, just :lol:
